apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected natty running-unity
** Description changed: - When gnome-disk-utility detects a failing hard drive, it uses libnotify - to warn the user. It assumes that the notification will look and behave - like one of notification-daemon's notifications: a simple, unobtrusive - popup with a single action button that says Examine. With notify-osd, - this is not the case. Instead, we get one of notify-osd's fallback alert - dialogs, and many of these dialogs appear at once (stacked on each - other). This is not optimal. Instead, gnome-disk-utility should display - its own dialog box. + When gnome-disk-utility detects a failing hard drive, it uses libnotify to warn the user.
